September Specials and New Catalog Party this week!
It all begins today for Stampin’ Up! September specials! But before I get into those I have to remind my local gals to stop in for my New Catalog party on Thursday.
It’s the last event I’ll be holding at my home studio in Minot. We love our new home in Bismarck though but it is hard to say goodbye to our Minot friends. I sincerely hope I see most of you again since I hope to return occasionally for a class or Bunco event.
There’s a new Product of the Month for September and it’s a winner!
It’s called Luxe Foliage Specialty Designer paper and can be seen here. It’s yours for just $5 once your order reaches the $75 point. I love that they offer a new item each and every month. There’s a nice variety to choose from. I cannot believe there is still some of the Glow of Harvest DSP left. And the Begonia Belle stamp set is still available as well.
I used watercolor pencils & blender pen to color the floral image
the gold honeycomb sheet is from the Sweet Sunflower Paper Pumpkin kit; it was a free gift add on
I used the gold honeycomb sheet to add a pretty, blended background using Balmy Blue ink & a Blending Brush
The Flowers of Home dies are in the 2022-23 Annual Catalog but also available free with a $100 Stampin' Up! order during Sale-a-Bration. See them here. This option ends on Wednesday, August 30th. See all of the Sale-a-Bration options here.
The stamp set & dies are available in a bundle too.
I made a second card using mostly the Flowers of Home dies.
I cased the card from Sue Mohr; I thought it was simply elegant way to create a 'wreath' around the oval sentiment.
The oval dies are from the Fabulous Frames dies seen here. When you cut out the oval it creates both the frame and the inside; two pieces with one die!
I textured the White layer with the Quatrefoil embossing folder seen here. It's so pretty and works perfectly with these flower & leaves die-cuts.
The colors I used are Balmy Blue, Pear Pizzazz, Polished Pink and Fresh Freesia.
Tip; when adding these delicate die-cuts use just a tiny but of Multipurpose Liquid glue.
Remember that these Flowers of Home dies are free with any $100 order through Wednesday, August 31st. Sale-a-Bration ends that day.

Free Sale-a-Bration choices with a pre-paid Paper Pumpkin subscription! Ends Wednesday!
Every month I share a bunch of alternative, bonus projects with my Paper Pumpkin subscribers and my Team. The kits are fine as is but it's fun to create something new from the stamps & elements in the kits!
Here's one I shared on last week's FB Live. I love the Sweet Sunflowers kit!
We always get a sneak peak of each month's kit so we have the opportunity to adjust our subscription. We can pause that month or choose to get more than one kit!
The monthly kits are available until the 10th of each month, so the decision to opt in for it or pause has to be made by then.
The Sweet Sunflowers kit included a bonus of 10 free gold foil honeycomb sheets this time. I used them as a stencil with Blending Brushes on the front and the inside of the card.
The card bases are patterned on both the front and the back! So I was able to get both of the cards below from one card. I cut it in half and die-cut the two layers with the Deckle dies.
Which one do you prefer?
I used Crushed Curry ink on the left card below and Balmy Blue on the right card. I cut one of the fold foil honeycomb sheets into quarters and used two of them on these cards, trimming them apart with a paper snips. I shared how I made these cards and two more in the video below. Or click here to watch it.
Below you can see how many free Sale-a-Bration items you can choose with a pre-paid Paper Pumpkin subscription. It really is the best time to get one! Why not earn free products with your purchase?!
I order a 6 month pre-paid subscription twice a year; once in the summer during SAB and once in January or February during SAB. I love this option to earn free products!
Did you know that when you are a Paper Pumpkin subscriber you can get refills from most of the monthly kits? The refills are usually around $11 and include everything in the original kit except the ink spot & stamp set. So once you have the full kit getting a refill means you can make more of the original projects or alternatives easily! See the optional refills here.
Unfortunately they do not expect to have refills for this kit; it was extremely popular! But if they do they'll be on the link above.
Each month the kits get better & more fun to create with! They knocked it out of the park with this one!
Here's a peak of last month's alternative projects my subscribers received.
I loved this kit too! They were wonderful, versatile cards.
